vintage ceramic crescent-shaped bone dish featuring the iconic Blue Willow: $10.00
This item is a vintage ceramic crescent-shaped bone dish featuring the iconic Blue Willow transferware pattern. These half-moon dishes were originally designed to sit right against the edge of a dinner plate to hold discarded fish or meat bones during Victorian-era meals.The back of the dish is completely unmarked (omitting any factory stamp, logo, or country of origin text). This typically means the piece was produced either as part of a utility set for wholesale distribution or imported from Japan or occupied regions during the early to mid-20th century, where paper labels were used instead of fired-on pottery stamps.
